“…Global shape processing, in our case based on the integration of local information around the shape's contour, can aid in the detection and discrimination of different shapes. This has been examined by numerous previous studies using radial frequency (RF) patterns (Almeida, Dickinson, Maybery, Badcock, & Badcock, 2013;Almeida, Dickinson, Maybery, Badcock, & Badcock, 2014;Baldwin et al, 2016;Bell, Badcock, Wilson, & Wilkinson, 2007;Bell, Dickinson, & Badcock, 2008;Dickinson, Han, Bell, & Badcock, 2010;Green, Dickinson, & Badcock, 2018a, 2018bLoffler, Wilson, & Wilkinson, 2003;Schmidtmann, Kennedy, Orbach, & Loffler, 2012;Wilkinson, Wilson, & Habak, 1998;Wilson & Propp, 2015). RF patterns are derived from circles by sinusoidally modulating their radius as a function of the polar angle.…”
